RACE FOR THE CURE



Today Garrett and I, along with the kids had the opportunity to partake in the
Susan G. Koman's "Race for the Cure".



This was such a great way to start out the weekend and support those fighting or who have fought breast cancer. It was INCREDIBLE to see how many people attended this event. Most who attended the race were those who were there running for a loved one, or MANY loved ones . A mother, Grandmother, sister, or aunt the list went on and it made me realize how precious life is and how shortly your life can completely change.
I thought once the race started we would be able to speed up to a jog and the pack would spread out, but due to so many participants the pack was tight and steady the whole 3.2 miles. So we decided to let Kenedy get out and run. Needless to say she loved it (who knows, she may someday be our little track star!!). We would run from one runner who had a dog asking if we could pet their cute "teeny tiny puppy". This event was truly enjoyable for people of all ages, (included pets).
Upon finishing the race we ventured to all the sponsors booths sampling lots of yummy snacks and goodies. WE ARE SO PROUD OF ALL OF YOU COURAGEOUS WOMEN !!!!!
Thank you Eunie Piper!!!!

That is so cute. I bet Kenedy loved it. I can't believe how packed it was! With parents like you and Garrett, I think running is in Kenedy's genes. :)
